Introduction
Almost every family has a dusty old
video tape of their kids or family, sitting somewhere on the shelf. The
tape has been played hundreds of times, the colours are fading, the
picture jumps and the sound cuts in and out. Finally one day, the tape
jams in the VCR or gets accidentally recorded-over one night and bam!
...so much for family memories lasting forever.
However - there is a cost
effective, long-lasting alternative to the video tape, and that's
converting them to DVD. By converting your video tapes to DVD, your
footage will not only last forever, but be protected in a quality case
against dust & dirt. And because DVD video technology is not erasable,
your memories can't be accidentally wiped or recorded over.
Can your family video tape stand the test of time?
Convert your videos to DVD before it's too late!
How much is it?
Basic video conversion starts from $33 per tape (including GST),
regardless of duration (return postage is additional). That said, we
have heaps of extra options available - including gift wrapping,
shipping to alternate addresses, audio volume adjustment,
picture-brightness adjustment, effects, music, chaptering, menu
creation, disc printing, custom cover design, and plenty more. Please
download our
Video Conversion eForm for full
pricing information.
Can I drop off my tapes?
Currently, we only accept tapes via mail to our secured GPO box in
Brisbane City. Since we started offering conversion services in 2002,
the postal system has not lost or misplaced any tape sent in to
us. For added security, you may wish to register your mail, or use a
track & trace system such as Express Post or AAE (Australian Air
Express), who can courier to PO boxes. If you want to use the
courier option, you can pickup AAE satchels from most post offices and
courier your tapes directly to us, from your local post office!
What formats can you convert to DVD?
We can convert VHS to DVD as well as standard MiniDV to DVD (except HD
MiniDV - but this service
is coming soon). For other
formats, we require that you supply the video camera or machine that the
tape was recorded on, as we will attempt to convert directly from the
device's output at no extra cost (in-person drop-offs are available
if you are supplying your own video camera for your custom video
conversion).
For more details, please check out our
tape
identification sheet.
Can you do custom edits?
We sure can! We've had people ask us to convert video files for their iPod /
SmartPhone, even compress a video for the internet and host it online so
their relatives overseas can watch it. Just let us
know what you're after & we'll see what we can do, or check out our
Video Editing section.
Can you convert TV recordings to
DVD?
Unfortunately not; copyright laws prohibit us from doing so.
Can you convert store-bought videos to
DVD?
According to current copyright laws (at the time of writing), you are
allowed to make one copy for your own backup purposes, if (and only if)
you own the original video tape. However, should the video tape employ
its own copy protection system (e.g. Macrovision), then our system will
physically be unable to make a copy.
What about Corporate video conversion?
Businesses can also take advantage of the benefits offered by our video
to DVD conversion technology - training videos, company profiles, even videos of events,
conferences and seminars can be converted to DVD. With DVD technology,
we can splice your video into chapters, lay a special sound track,
enhance the colours, even create an interactive menu!
